Kuro had written these things when he was a teenager, before he joined the Navy. If Ogee hadn't sent them to him this time, he would have forgotten them himself.
Fortunately, Oji delivered it in time.
Kuro may not care about this, but if someone sees it... that might not be good.
But what if it's just ruined like this...?
I'm quite reluctant to part with it.
He was also wholeheartedly devoted back then.
After thinking for a moment, Kuro sighed, flicked his finger, and the window opened automatically. A ball of golden light flew in from above. It was some gold powder. Kuro had wrapped his investigation report and rebellion plan in gold, forming a small golden ball, and sent it into the sky.
Let's keep it as a memento...
Then, he moved his fingers again, sorted out the contents of the large box, and arranged them around his office.
The power of the Float-Float Fruit is so useful. Of course, there's something even more useful: calling someone in to help you tidy up. But that's just a childhood memory, so it's easier to tidy up yourself.
"The sky is so blue..."
Kuro watched the golden dust float up, sighed, leaned back, and exhaled a puff of smoke from his cigar.
"Finally, I can get some rest."
The main conflicts now lie in the latter half of the New World, within the territories of the Four Emperors.
Whether it's the so-called Worst Generation brats, the old pirates who have been lying in wait for a long time, or the four sea emperors who reigned in the latter half of the New World, that's their own business, because the most troublesome people have all moved into the New World.
Although the waters where his G-3 operated were also in the New World, given the level of chaos, they posed no threat to him.
Now, I just need to slowly recover from my injury.
He stretched and recited a famous haiku by an anonymous author.
"It's safe, oh my god, it's safe, it's safe..."
Then he closed his eyes and began to rest.
Two months later, G-3 Fortress remained calm, but some rumors began to circulate outside.
King David the Conqueror seemed to have gone mad. After returning from the World Conference, he began a large-scale massacre of the nobles in his country, including the former rulers of the newly conquered territories, who were all wiped out by him.
The kings of four countries in the North Sea did the same thing after returning home.
Meanwhile, Lowe, the famous king of the Insect Kingdom in the West Sea, launched a war against the Twin Horse Kingdom and annexed its territory.
In addition, after the World Conference, conflicts broke out among the nations of the four seas and even the Grand Line, with frequent minor frictions and constant major conflicts.
"Tsk, these are turbulent times."
Inside the office, Kuro looked at the newspaper in his hand and shook his head.
Following the World Government Summit, not only were there constant reports from the pirates, but many conflicts also arose among the nations within the World Government's sphere of influence.
But thinking about it, it's quite normal. It's a world conference, after all. How can the spoils be evenly distributed in seven days? There will always be times when people are not satisfied with the benefits. You can't expect them to divide your spoils at the conference and then just go back and offer your neck to be slaughtered.
What you can't get on the battlefield, you can't get at the negotiating table either.
It's a truth that even a fool could understand.
It's normal for there to be conflicts, so it's not surprising that David's message was hidden among them.
They've only ruled Dressrosa for a short time, so it's normal for there to be conflicts. They probably discovered something at the World Government meeting, but that's their internal affair, and neither the Navy nor the World Government can interfere.
It's quite surprising that Lowe conquered the Twin Horse Kingdom, but given Old K's character... never mind, he persecuted many people for the sake of so-called Kabuki and even brought out a Guardian Ape, so Kuro doesn't have a good impression of him either.
That's all. On the contrary, with the addition of the Twin Horse Kingdom to the Insect Kingdom's territory, his own Pegasus Island will be better off. After all, Lida owns half of that business, and Lowe, that arrogant and domineering sister-complex guy, probably cares about the Pegasus Island business even more than he, the boss, does.
"Kuro, Kuro!"
The door was pushed open, and Lida rushed in excitedly. "I heard you're going to abolish the existing Seven Warlords of the Sea? And recruit new ones?!"
Lida's first words completely stumped Kuro.
"ah?!"
He was stunned for a moment and asked, "What the hell? What's going on? When did I say that?"
"That's what the Navy said when they returned from their patrol. After all, some time has passed since the World Conference, and everyone knows that you now have the power of the Seven Warlords, but you haven't done anything about it. So now everyone thinks you should abolish the existing Seven Warlords."
Lida tilted her head. "Don't you have that thought?"
"I have a ghost!"
Kuro smirked and waved his hand, saying, "Don't listen to those rumors, I didn't... Wait, how far has this news spread?!"
Lida thought for a moment, "It should have reached the ears of those former Shichibukai."
Kuro quickly picked up the phone and dialed a number.
With a ringing of a Den Den Mushi, the appearance of the Den Den Mushi quickly changed into a cold face with eagle-like eyes.
"Kuro... I'm almost at G-3."
"What are you doing at G-3?" Kuro became alert.
"Heh, you want to abolish the Seven Warlords of the Sea, isn't it because you've set your sights on my position? Perfect, I've always wanted to fight you."
Even while following the Den Den Mushi, Kuro could feel the surging fighting spirit.
This guy wants to fencing with me!!
"No! It's a misunderstanding! It must be a misunderstanding!"
Kuro said urgently, "I've only been recuperating from my injuries recently. Now that I'm healed, the decision regarding the Seven Warlords of the Sea remains unchanged. You, Mihawk, are among the Seven Warlords."
"Your injuries have healed? Then shouldn't we have an even better fight? Kuro, you have the qualifications to challenge me, the world's greatest swordsman. Come on, take this position from me, defeat me, and let me feel the defeat as a swordsman!"
"Did I say my injury was healed? You misheard me, you mean that, that... I was just pretending. A man has to say he can even if he can't. Actually, my injury isn't healed yet, I was just faking it," Kuro hurriedly said.
Fight him? Are you crazy?
Putting aside whether he can win or not, even if he could win, what would be the benefit? Would Kuro become the world's greatest swordsman?
What else could that title bring him besides attracting the attention of swordsmen on the high seas?
Mihawk is always either fencing or on his way to fencing, like a honey badger. He doesn't want to become like that.
The Den Den Mushi paused for a moment, then said, "But I'm almost there."
“I welcome you as a guest. Perfect timing, I need to gather the remaining Shichibukai and clarify your responsibilities,” Kuro said, taking a bite of a cigar.
Do you have any good wine?
"Of course, there's no martial arts competition here, but we can certainly offer you fine wine and cigarettes," Kuro chuckled softly.
Mihawk does have a great fondness for alcohol, a fact that Kuro knows.
"Perfect timing. I just ran into a pirate crew, took them out, and got a nicely packaged box of cigars. Consider it a small gift for you." The other person chuckled.
"Oh? Then I'll have to look forward to it."
